But the butler moved faster, and he struck Yu Sheng's heart instantly like lightning.
Seeing the man's angry eyes, the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion shook his head and said: "Eight people, at least eight people are enough. I wanted to keep you, but you are too murderous and are seeking your own death."
The incident happened suddenly, and the remaining bodyguards watched Yu Sheng fall. For a moment, other than dumbfounding, they made no other move.
"..."
After regaining consciousness, the reactions of these people were interesting.
Some drew the knife, some drew the knife out and then pushed it back immediately, some looked numb and motionless, and some immediately attacked their companions.
"It's said that those who are too murderous will die. It's better for you to go on a killing spree in the blink of an eye. You're really smart."
The housekeeper shook his head and pointed at the bodyguard who was so numb that he didn't even have the slightest intention to resist: "Leave him alone, and kill the rest of them."
.....................
When the money tree was brought up with its blood-stained cloth head covered by the servants, Marquis Changle waved his hand, and all the dancers who were showing off their graceful figures quietly retreated.
After a while, apart from Chang Lehou, only the butler Pang Zhong was left in the entire hall.
"It must have been ten years, right?"
Ten years ago, I accidentally read an ancient book, which detailedly recorded the method of planting and cultivating money trees.
At first, it was just for fun that a group of diners tried to cultivate it, but with more and more investment, the money tree gradually became a worry for him.
"Your Majesty, it's been ten years and seven months." Pang Zhong replied immediately.
"Well, they say that a certain treasure is worth a fortune. The investment I have invested in it in the past ten years can be converted into money to buy a city."
Marquis Changle stood up and was about to lift the cloth. Pang Zhong on the side saw it and said quickly: "Master Marquis, although the human sacrifice has been completed according to the ancient books, your body of gold..."
"Ok?"
Pang Zhong didn't mean anything by saying this, it was just to show his loyalty.
After all, the evil gate of this money tree is so tight that even if the human sacrifice has been completed, it may not be safe.
But when Marquis Changle made a slightly unpleasant nasal sound, the old slave knew that he had said the wrong thing.
"You should never have ruined the Marquis's elegance. This slave deserves to die!"
Pang Zhong's body was not defective, but his servile and servile look at this moment made any real eunuch in the palace feel ashamed.
Marquis Changle ignored Pang Zhong and suddenly lifted the cloth.
slam-la-
The red thread broke and countless copper coins fell to the ground.
Marquis Changle's smile froze on his face, and Pang Zhong didn't even dare to take a breath.
"How could this be?"
"How could this be!"
He gritted his teeth, exasperated.
"Master Marquis, calm down, slave. I will go and interrogate the bodyguard right now."
"Why are you still kneeling? Hurry, go and interrogate! Give me a good interrogation and careful interrogation!"
In anger, Marquis Changle kicked the old housekeeper to the ground.
Pang Zhong said nothing and quickly left the hall on his knees.
.........................
The result of the interrogation was that before arriving at Changle City, gangsters robbed the escort. In the chaos, the carriage overturned and the money tree was damaged!
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Marquis Changle paced back and forth irritably.
Pang Zhong also thought it was impossible. The money tree was a sacred object (evil object) and not porcelain. How could it fail after being dropped?
However, after various interrogation methods were tried, Pang Zhong could at least be sure that the man was not lying.
Since he didn't lie, then based on the information from the interrogation, we can only draw this conclusion.
"Waiting for personal interrogation by this Marquis"
Marquis Changle was unwilling to accept this result, but after he tried again and again and tried all the people, he seemed unwilling to accept it and had no choice but to accept it.
"Hateful, those evil thieves! Catch them all, everyone, everyone involved in this matter will be captured and beheaded at noon!"
"Yes, the servant will go right away."
As soon as Pang Zhong turned around, Marquis Changle said: "Leave this matter to Li Zhuo. He can use all the guards in the house."
Marquis Changle has thousands of followers (an imaginary number), but he can call out only a few of them by name.
It is natural that Li Zhuo enjoys this honor. He is the first guest of the Hou Mansion. The Marquis of Changle once rewarded this man with a jade pendant that he wore for more than thirty years. The favor can be said to be unparalleled!
"Yes"
Pang Zhong felt envious and jealous in his heart, but he had to obey the Marquis's order, so he immediately bowed and obeyed.
................................
Xie Lingyun and Tangtang didn't know that they were about to be in disaster. They rode horses leisurely and arrived at Spring City.
"Tangtang, I've decided!"
Xie Lingyun suddenly made up his mind and said: "The rivers and lakes are dangerous, I will learn the skills from my master, and when I have mastered my martial arts skills, I will go out to fight for justice."
Huh?
The little girl blinked and looked at Xie Nuxia in confusion: "Sister Xie, you are so good, why do you still need to learn from me?"
"Although I am very powerful compared to Tangtang, but this ability..."
After a pause, Xie Lingyun smiled bitterly and said: "It's really just the Three-Legged Cat Kung Fu."
Tangtang obviously disagreed with the girl's statement. She murmured a few words, "Sister Xie is amazing," and then asked, "Sister Xie, who do you plan to become a disciple of?"
"I don't know if there are any hidden masters or more powerful sects in this Spring City."
Xie Lingyun thought for a moment and then shook his head and said: "Forget it, just take it one step at a time."
Entering Spring City, the two first found an inn to settle down.
What made Xie Lingyun extremely ashamed was that she didn't have a single copper on her body, and the girl paid for the accommodation this time.
'I have to find a way to make some money quickly, otherwise I will be like a rice bug. '
'But how to make money... By the way, I can perform on the street! '
Chapter 022 Wool Theory
Xie Lingyun can't break a big stone in her chest, but she thinks she can still play darts.
"middle!"
The little girl threw an apple, and the willow leaf dart flew over and hit it.
"middle!"
The little girl threw a walnut, and the willow leaf dart flew over and hit it.
"middle!"
The little girl threw a soybean, and the willow leaf dart flew over and missed.
"Hahahaha"
The audience burst into laughter, and Xie Lingyun's face suddenly turned red.
Hey, I should be able to win, why didn't I win?
Although something went wrong, fortunately, everyone was more tolerant and laughed. For the sake of the little girl's cuteness, there were some small rewards.
Xie Nuxia was really thin-skinned, so she took the opportunity to quickly close her stall.
"Haha, it's not too difficult to make money."
After counting the harvest, Xie Nuxia's mood improved and she couldn't help but say with a bit of pride.
"Yeah, I just have a little money," Tangtang said heartbreaking words.
"Uh, this, this is the first scene, let's continue somewhere else!"
Xie Lingyun held the little girl's hand and was about to leave, but two strong men emerged from the crowd and stopped her.
"Want to leave? Hand over the money!"
"You all want to steal such a small amount of money?"
Thinking that he was being robbed in broad daylight, Xie Lingyun stood on his head and took action without saying a word.
whoosh-
The willow leaf dart flew out, but the man who spoke just now curled his lips and caught the dart with his bare hands.
Alas! ! !
Seeing Xie Lingyun's eyes widening in a funny way, the man laughed and threw the willow leaf dart back.
"With your skills as a three-legged cat, it would be a shame to argue with you."
"Don't you know that this street is the territory of our Happy Door? The owner of the door has an order that every street performer should hand over half of the reward as a 'rental fee'. Do you want to pay it?"
"..."
"Here you go!" Xie Lingyun was struggling with himself, and Tangtang Tangtang handed over the money.
...............................
It's embarrassing, and it's very embarrassing.
Feeling that her glorious and majestic image in the little girl's heart had been completely shattered, Xie Nuxia couldn't help but feel extremely depressed.
"Thank you sister, let's go somewhere else." Tangtang said as if nothing happened.
Well.
"Thank you, Tangtang. But there's no need to do this. It's okay to laugh at me all you want." Xie Nuxia gave up on herself and began to talk nonsense.
"Why are you laughing at Sister Xie?" The little girl felt strange.
"He took away half of my money just now."
"Yes, half of the money everyone gave us is gone. But there's nothing we can do. This street belongs to them, and we have to pay the rental fee."
Ah this...
Seeing the serious expression on the little girl's face, Xie Lingyun suddenly felt dumbfounded.
She remembered that Tangtang seemed to have believed the robbers' lies last time, and she took the initiative to hand over the "travel money" with both hands.
She wanted to explain a few words, but then she thought about it. Wouldn't it be a slap in the face to explain now?
"Haha, what, even if you are traveling in the world, there are some rules that you must abide by."
Xie Lingyun said something vaguely, held Tangtang's hand and continued to make money.
Learning from the experience and lessons learned from her first failure, Xie Nuxia omitted the part of shooting soybeans with darts.
So she won unanimous praise from the audience, but unfortunately she didn't make much money.
'Those who kill a thousand swords! '
Without exception, there are different sects in all downtowns charging rental fees from her.
Xie Nuxia, who had tasted the feeling of being exploited for the first time, was filled with hatred!But the skills are not as good as others, so there is nothing you can do.
"Thank you sister, I'm hungry."
The little girl had a hard time being an assistant today, so Xie Lingyun decided to give her extra food.
"Let's go, sister will take you to a big dinner!"
..............................
A bowl of plain noodles and two steamed buns with pickles.
Unable to hold on until morning, Xie Lingyun was woken up by hunger in the middle of the night.
